00:00Now that the dust has settled, a local team, Bobby, has the best transfer class at all of college football.
00:08Okay, so you're going to tell me it's Arkansas or Oklahoma?
00:10Close.
00:11Close.
00:12Kind of in the middle, kind of northwest of Arkansas and northeast of Oklahoma.
00:17It is Oklahoma State has done the best of any of the power four schools.
00:23Not so bad, that UNT program that they rated, huh?
00:27I know, only if they could get 50 other players that are worth a damn.
00:30I mean, they literally took about 50 players from UNT.
00:32Look, I mean, they get 80 players that are worth a damn.
00:35But you get Caleb Hawkins, who was there.
00:38You get Wyatt Young, who was there, and Drew Mestemaker.
00:43To go along with the head coach, of course, and now you've got yourself a nice little team.
00:47Best season ever from Eric Morris for the Mean Green.
00:52And now they bring what was a really awesome offense at that level.
00:56They bring it up.
00:57To the Big 12.
00:59And now we'll see what happens there this year.
01:01But all things considered, sleeper Big 12 contenders at this point.
01:06Everyone's talking about throwing a coin, some coin down on the Cowboys to win the Big 12.
01:12Do you not see what I'm seeing here?
01:15The hypocrisy of the UNT take.
01:18And they're now talking about throwing a coin down on them as a sleeper for raiding the school
01:23and putting it in Oklahoma State.
01:24It's not a sleeper take.
01:25It's not a sleeper take.
01:25It's just like Indiana when they raided James Madison.
01:28That doesn't mean James Madison could have done the same thing.
01:31They're combining two organizations.
01:33But it definitely means that you wouldn't have talked about James Madison if the Corps
01:37went over and helped contribute to a national championship.
01:40That you'd be like, they deserve absolutely no recognition.
01:43Yeah, I would because it's about having 22 legitimate starters at the Power 4 level versus having seven.
01:53You talked about North Texas like it was A-Ball versus MLB.
01:57It is A-Ball versus MLB.
01:58If it's A-Ball versus MLB, then it can't be worth throwing a coin down after they raided their school.
02:04This was the college football argument, by the way, about UNT and those types of programs getting in.
02:09Me and Choppy, I ended up siding with Choppy being like, they're going to get smoked.
02:13They should not have this seating.
02:14And Bobby's point was, well, if they're good enough to be raided, then they should be good enough to be
02:21counted.
02:21And also, I didn't think it mattered if they got smoked.
02:24Because to me, it was like, this is the reward in the era of NIL to protect these programs that
02:27are going to get raided.
02:28And look, if that was your, if that's the take, I'm fine with, just be upfront about it.
02:34Be upfront about it.
02:35This is not the most, just say it's not the most 12 deserving, 12 most deserving teams.
02:40Don't they tell you that with the polls, though, where none of them put them in the top 12?
02:46They tell you it's an at-large bid.
02:48Yeah, but to me, an at-large bid is like, okay, you're an at-large bid means you're the, you're
02:52like a legitimate deserving team.
02:54An automatic bid, if you were to give a conference champion like Duke, if Duke had made it, I wouldn't
02:59have had a, I mean, I would have hated it, but, you know, like they, I would have hated it.
03:04But at least they're like a major conference winner, right?
03:07It's tough.
03:08I see both sides.
03:09I, for my own selfish purposes, care more about what the ball is.
03:13And Malcolm Simmons, who, you know, they got a big payday as well.
03:18So, LSU gets up there, K-State, West Virginia, Florida, Atlantic, Houston.
03:24And then you get all the way down to number 15, and you find Texas, who, Cam Coleman's really the
03:29number one, right?
03:30Yeah, that's, I mean, in a lot of instances, you're just, you're trying to snatch a big name out of
03:36the portal and then fill in around it.
03:38And so, as long as you get a guy like that, then you're good.
03:41So, there's your top classes from the portal.
03:44So, I've come away with a couple of things here from the last couple of national championships that were crowned.
03:50One was Indiana, and then obviously Michigan.
03:53And the two new truths, truths, about college athletics.
03:59One, a good 22-year-old is better than an elite 18-year-old.
04:05I think you'd rather have that.
04:06Clip that, Peyton.
04:08Usually you want the thoroughbred talent.
04:10Usually you do.
04:11Usually you do want the thoroughbred talent, but you got a man versus a child still.
04:17And then number two, 75% of your NIL budget needs to go to the transfer portal and not high
04:25school recruiting.
04:26And I hate that.
04:28I hate that.
04:29It is, this is ruined high school recruiting.
04:32It's the Dion philosophy of just, screw it.
04:35I don't even need to be in the homes of high schoolers.
04:37And I really hate it.
04:38I really, I really hate it.
04:40Instead of getting a 17- to 20-person recruiting class, you're going to get a 10.
04:45You know, and the threshold to become a Division I athlete out of high school.
04:50You know, sit in your high school gym on National Signing Day in front of a banner,
04:56and then you put the Ohio State hat on, or the Texas hat on, or the Florida hat on,
05:01and now you're going to put on Akron.
05:04Then you justify Matt Leiner.
05:05And then you justify Matt Leiner, because Matt Leiner, he was proven so right.
05:11So right yesterday.
05:12Bobby, you backed him fully.
05:14And I loved it.
05:15I loved it too.
05:16Backed him more than Reggie Bush shoving him into the end zone.
05:19Because he said he would not give up, and he would not unretire number 11,
05:26because he's like, I don't know that this kid's going to be here for more than a year.
05:30This is why Troy Aikman's not going to donate money to UCLA.
05:34He's like, why would I donate money to a kid who's going to take my money,
05:37spend a year here, maybe red shirt, and then leave for greener pastures?
05:41Well, I mean, this is maybe one of the biggest landslides we've ever seen.
05:47Jake Wilkins at Georgia got somebody named Dominique to unretire number 21.
05:55How did he know Dominique?
05:57It's his dad!
05:59And he still left after one year.
06:02He left after his dad unretired.
06:03His dad unretires his jersey for one year, and he leaves.
06:08That's pretty solid.
06:09But I'm sure Dad knew that.
06:11And does it immediately go back to being retired now?
06:14I would assume so.
06:16I wonder if that's the arrangement.
06:19Is the general understood arrangement in these sort of requests that,
06:23well, if they leave or as soon as they leave, it just defaults back to being retired.
06:26We're not just going to keep handing it out.
06:29It might be.
06:30It might.
06:31I just.
06:31Yeah, I'm keeping it off limits.
06:33I'm keeping it off limits.
06:34I don't want anybody to have it.
06:35Matt Leiner, I think Matt Leiner's right.
06:37I think this is a landslide of all landslides.
06:40Keep it away.
06:41Keep it away.
06:42But anyway, yeah, so like Indiana, going back to that last comment about the average age
06:48of a Sweet 16 team this year was 22 years old.
06:50Average.
06:51Average age.
06:52That's almost two full years older than the average age was in 2015 of a team in the Sweet
06:5716.
06:58Indiana football, their average age was 23 of their starters on offense.
07:03The average age of the Green Bay Packers was 25.
07:07Wow.
07:08Like, put that in perspective.
07:10You know, these are men playing against children, essentially.
07:15College kegger here, 105.3 The Fan.
07:18The Save College Sports Act.
07:22Tell me if you like these two rules that were put out there.
07:26They're going to take effect August 1st.
07:28They're in executive order.
07:31Number one, implementing a five for five eligibility model, which they have five years to play five
07:36seasons.
07:38So they could play five seasons if they don't get hurt.
07:41Right?
07:41You don't get hurt.
07:42You get five years.
07:43No red shirt.
07:43Nothing.
07:45Two, moving back to the old rules that limit players to a single transfer without a penalty.
07:50So you don't have to sit out.
07:52But if you want to transfer a second time, then you've got to sit out a year.
07:57But if you graduate, you get an additional free transfer.
08:05So you lose an opportunity.
08:06So I have to graduate first, then get my transfer?
08:09So you could transfer.
08:10So let's say you say, I'm going to go to the University of Texas.
08:13You stay there for a year.
08:14You're like, I don't like it.
08:15I'm going to transfer to Utah.
08:18You're stuck.
08:20Okay?
08:20Until you graduate, and then you get a free transfer.
08:24Now it is, if you don't like Texas, you go to Utah.
08:26If you don't like Utah, you go to Washington.
08:29If you don't like Washington, you end up in Alabama, and you've gone to four schools in four years
08:33and never have to sit out.
08:34You can still do that under the potential new rules, but once you leave the second school,
08:39you've got to sit out a year.
08:40You still maintain eligibility, but you've got to just miss a year.
08:43I'll go to the selfishness again.
08:45I'll divide this.
08:47Selfishness versus what should be right.
08:50The selfishness is I like that.
08:53I don't like everyone just jumping around nonstop.
08:56But what is right?
08:57These coaches are whores.
08:59Lane Kiffin is a whore.
09:00They're all whores.
09:01So now I've got to sit here and put the limitations on the kids.
09:06That doesn't feel right from a student or just individual perspective.
09:11But from a selfish sports fan perspective, yes, I like the limitation of the movement.
09:16Because when a coach leaves, everybody's free, no matter whether they're out of transfers or not.
09:22That's the good thing.
09:23Yeah, I mean, it's the good thing in terms of—
09:26Even when a new coach comes in, my position can be screwed.
09:28Yeah, so when your coach leaves, yeah, you can enter the portal.
09:33You're free to go.
09:34Yeah, like Sean said, it's nice from the perspective of the consumer, the person watching it.
09:41The biggest thing to me is like—
09:43If I go to college as a student, I'm not limited on the amount of different colleges I can go
09:49to.
09:49No, you can't.
09:49Why?
09:50Why does this have to be a rule?
09:51Like, if I'm a player, and I were to say, like, tell me the reason why.
09:55Who does this protect?
09:57It protects the team.
09:58Okay, then that's not a good enough—
10:00Like, you can't then—
10:01Right.
10:01This is about—you're putting rules on me because you just want to protect the bottom line of a school.
10:07You want to go back to some of the same stuff that existed back before NIL did.
10:11You're trying to basically create rules and limitations that, all right, well, we can kind of get back the model
10:18that we want.
10:19Sorry, no.
10:20Like, I mean, I'd like it if they just stayed, but no.
10:23Like, there's no reasonable explanation as to why that rule would be in place to protect the player.
10:30And if they were going to have the rule about the transfer thing, to Sean's point, with all the coaches
10:33flipping,
10:33then there needs to be some rule in place about how much coaches are allowed to move.
10:36Yeah.
10:37Oh, yeah.
10:39The second rule, that one about the transfer—
10:41I'm sure Saban didn't push that, though.
10:42Probably not.
10:43Because he's a whore, too.
10:45This thing is—you need to modify it and work around it.
10:48I do not like the five for five.
10:50Playing five seasons, that's not college football.
10:53Five seasons?
10:54I don't like that.
10:54You're saying you think it should be four.
10:55Just stop it at four.
10:57Have five years.
10:57You have five years by four.
10:59This whole fifth year—
11:00I hate the six-year stuff, too.
11:01Yeah, I don't either.
11:03I can work around the—so I would get rid of that one.
11:06The second one about the player transfer rules, I mean, there's work—there's things you can work with in there
11:11that you've got to mold and change a little, because I agree, you know, like if you—
11:14Well, you ain't changing nothing.
11:15It's an executive order.
11:17Well—
11:17It's done.
11:18But that's—that's just a—I don't think that's actually in law.
11:21Okay.
11:22I don't think.
11:22I thought you said it was taking effect.
11:23It would take effect, but the way the executive orders work is it can direct enforcement,
11:32but it can't override, like, state laws.
11:36Okay.
11:36So, you know, once that happens, it'll not really work.
11:39College keg—
